This is a beautiful photograph, love the position of the front paws and the look, I like how you can see the changes in the coloration of its coat, and the different colors of the leopard's eyes. The texture of the fur is amazing, and you can see every detail, which is awesome. I think the composition could use some more space around the animal, it would allow the image to breathe better, I think, and the background could be more a tad blurrier. I also think the image could be larger, to better appreciate the details, it makes me want to approach and see everything a bit closer, nice job!

Another fantastic photo from you! I just get so very sad whenever I see a picture of a Amur leopard! Because we know that the species is facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild. How very, very sad!! The Amur leopard and the tiger is the most beautiful cats!

Does the title refer to the conservation status?

So beautiful. I am not sure what you yourself meant by the title, but to me it immediately meant 'Is there any time left to save them?' Hope the answer is yes!

so it looks like they'll soon be extinct in the wild & ther is no coming back from that raised by people can't go back cause they associate us w/ food it's too dangerous & then it's just a matter of time til imbreeding takes them out for good I really hope the 30 in the wild are genetically different enough to make a come back

well no again 
they plan the project how to release them to the wild.
ZOOs have already managed to release animals, which have been already extinct in the wild

thank you for tell people about the Amur leopard, I like to point out to people that it really is an idotic idea to have these animals as pets because if the escape they can live any where in the western hemisphere.
